I cannot get my Canon LBP 5050 to print

I have had problmes with this printer before but now it never prints. It tells me I'm out of paper when I'm not. It tells me there's a blockage when there isn't. It sopends forever recalibarting itself to then decide that it won't print due to the mythical problems above. I am beyond my wits end so please help!

Is there anything I can do or should I just cut my losses and never buy a Canon again? Thanks in anticipation and apologies for my awful spelling in the original question!Is there anything I can do or should I just cut my losses and never buy a Canon again?

I had the same cr@p of the problem yesterday. The problem was not inthe paper. You have to do 2 simple things, from which one will solvethe problem.first, download the latest drivers and install them.And the more important thing, the problem occurred due to incorrectpaper format. Solution is very simple. Open MS word or somethingsimilar, file->print.. and before you print open Properties menu.There for the Output Size will be selected "Match Page Size". you don'twant that (i don't know why it doesn't work), but the solution ismanually select A4, or whatever your page size is.And there it is... printer starts throwing pages out like crazy :)))

Remove the printer data cable & restart the PC & printer. Then fit back the data cable & turn on the printer. Hope that's start working , if no luck then Uninstall the printer driver & restart the PC & Printer both again. Now install the driver of the printer and connect it with PC ,Turn on printer & go for a test print from the printer preference. Thanks & waiting for your reply.
